Penetration Testing

        Is your confidential information safe from hackers? 
       
        Do you need to know the real level of security provided by your network,
        people, and operational processes? 

        Do you need to prove the level of your security to auditors, business partners,
        or your clients?

Penetration testing, or ethical hacking, is the most thorough test of your network’s security.
Penetration testing is a controlled attempt to compromise your network and its data. To simulate a real attack by a skilled hacker, Digital Defence testers use a strict methodology the employs the latest attack techniques to identify exploitable vulnerabilities before they can be used by an attacker.

During the test, you have full visibility into the actions of the attacker, as well as your network's defensive mechanisms. Did your firewall stop the attack? Did your intrusion detection system identify an attack in process? Most importantly, did your IT and security staff respond appropriately to the intrusion? Penetration testing will not only identify vulnerabilities, it ensures a significant transfer of knowledge to your technical staff and raises the general awareness of security across the entire organization.
